TO TEACHERS. 

The practice of teaching a child to read or pronounce a reading 
lesson before he knows the orthography and pronunciation of the 
words which compose it, retards rather than facilitates his progress 
in correct reading. No child should be required to attempt to read 
or pronounce a reading lesson until he is able to call or pronounce, 
at sight, the words commonly met with in composition ; and, this 
knowledge can be more easily acquired by reading or pronouncing 
words in the spelling columns of a Spelling Book, judiciously and 
analogically classed, than in detached reading lessons. 

The teacher should always require his scholars to pronounce the 
words in each spelling lesson, at sight, either before or immediately 
after spelling it, as the only sure and certain method of making good 
readers* Let the scholar at the head of the class pronounce or enun- 
ciate, one, two, or three words ; the next scholar the same, and so 
on throughout the spelling class; the number of words which each 
scholar pronounces, however, should always be proportional to the 
number of scholars in the spelling class. This practice the Author 
pursued ma*iy years, while engaged in the business of teaching, 
with results entirely satisfactory ; and, his experience imboldens 
him to recommend it to those who are intrusted with the instruction 
of children. If the scholar be required to read or pronounce words 
in a reading lesson before he has learned to sound or pronounce 
them separately in spelling columns, at sight, he will hesitate ; and 
will, most generally, be confirmed in the habit of stammering while 
reading; for, although a child may know perfectly well how to 
spell a word and to divide it as it is in a spelling column ; yet, when 
he sees the same word in a reading lesson, the syllables being closed 
up, it presents a new appearance to him. 

It should be always borne in mind that reading is the enunciation 
I or pronouncing of words by syllables ; and that, therefore, each syl- 
lable in every word should be as distinctly enunciated or pronounced 
as if the whole reading lesson were composed of monosyllables only. 
Hence the importance of pronouncing words, at sight, in spelling 
columns. Unless children do acquire a correct and distinct enuncia- 
tion of each syllable in spelling columns, they rarely, if ever, acquire 
it in after life ; for, in the practice or business of reading, the pauses, 
emphasis, cadence, &c., occupy all, or nearly all, their attention. 

Note. — Let each scholar, in the process of spelling, pronounce 
the syllables as he proceeds, in a distinct and deliberate manner. 
This, more than any other exercise, will prevent an indistinct and 
faulty articulation in reading. It will also aid very much in im- 
pressing the orthography of each word permanently on the mind. 
Thus, promote — spelled — p-r-o — pronounced pro — spelled — m-o-t-e 
— pronounced mole — then pronounced in full pro-mote'. Thus, 
subterranean — spelled s-u-b — pronounced sub — spelled t-e-r — pro- 
nounced ter — then subter — r-a — ra — then subterra — n-e — ne — then 
subterrane — a-n — an — then pronounced in full — sub-ter-ra'-ne~an.

PREFACE. 

The great and prominent object of a Spelling Book should be, to aid the 
pupil in learning to spell, pronounce, and read with ease, accuracy, and 
precision. 

To effect this most important object, the Spelling Book should contain most 
of the common and useful words of the language, properly classed, divided, 
pronounced, and accented, exhibiting, in the different Spelling Lessons, all 
the varieties of vowel and consonant sounds in the language, w r ith their 
distinctive peculiarities minutely and accurately pointed out and explained. 

The only classification which seems to have been observed by the au- 
thors of Spelling Books now generally in use, is that of placing a number 
of words of an equal number of syllables in the same spelling column, 
without any regard to the various terminations, various diphthongs, or silent 
letters which the words may contain. By this indiscriminate and promis- 
cuous intermingling of words, having various terminations, containing vari- 
ous diphthongs, silent consonants, as also an indiscriminate intermingling of 
words containing single and double consonants, it is almost impossible for 
the scholar to remember either the orthography or pronunciation of any of 
them, having no aid whatever from analogy. But by having these words 
in separate lessons, the scholar, after having learned or been taught two or 
three words in each lesson, will, from analogy, learn the whole lesson in 
one half, and, in many instances, in one fourth of the time which it would 
require if indiscriminately classed. The importance of separating the sin- 
gle and double consonants, will be obvious when we reflect that, in almost 
innumerable instances, the ear can not perceive any difference in the pro- 
nunciation of the words having single and double consonants, in addition 
to the perplexity occasioned to the eije, by promiscuously intermingling 
them ; as liZ y and hil ly ; ve?* y and mer ry ; vom it and sum mit ; flor id 
and hor rid ; pit y and dit ty ; cop y and pop py ; sim mer and prim er ; va/- 
id and paZ lid, &c. &c. The practice of giving these words to the scholar 
as a spelling task, when thus intermingled, as in other Spelling Books, falls 
little short of a perfect farce ; for, the effort on the part of the scholar to 
spell the words is a matter of guess-work wholly. It is fully believed, from 
a careful examination of the matter, both by observation and experience, 
that, owing to the promiscuous intermingling of various diphthongs and triph- 
thongs, various terminations, various consonant sounds, similarly sounded, 
silent consonants, single and double consonants, words spelled differently 
and pronounced alike, words spelled alike and differently pronounced or 
accented, &c. &c, more time has been spent in each school of the United 
States in pronouncing the word " NEXT" in consequence of this system of 
guessing at the orthography of the words, in spelling classes, and in the 
time of guessing than would, with a proper classification, be necessary to 
acquire a thorough knowledge of all the words in the Spelling Book. 

The intermingling of various terminations, sounding alike, produces 
great evil, embarrassment, and hinderance before these different termina-^ 
tions are fully impressed on the memory, in connexion with the previous'-?- 
ftyllables, which alone distinguish one word from another to the ear ; as, 
mortar, enter, tutor, martyr, all ending with the sound tur, are learned only 
by repeating tar with mor, ter with en, tor with tu, and tyr with mar, 
until the associations of these letters — mortar, enter, tutor, and martyr, are 
thoroughly impressed on the mind — and so only can they be learned. 
Now, if these and similar terminations, sounding alike, are intermingled 
before the associations are fully impressed, there will be constant doubt in 
the mind of the scholar; as, farce and parse, prison and risen, memory and 
misery, shove/ 1 and tab/e, coercion, desertion, aspersion, &c. &c. But, when 
the associations of the letters have become fully impressed on the mind 
or memory, in connexion with their sounds, the scholar will call up to his 
recollection the images of the letters which compose each word, whether

orthoepical or analogous or not, with equal readiness : thus, wrought and 
hat, beauty and duty, freight and late, &c, are spelled by the scholar with 
equal ease and accuracy when the associations have been fully impressed 
on his mind. [See the first page of this book.] 

DISTINCTIVE PECULIARITIES. 

This Spelling Book is based upon the principle, that, to enable the scholar 
to learn rapidly, and permanently to impress the orthography of each word 
on his mind, the words should be so presented or classed that the eye and 
ear will act in concert or unison, and that by this classification of similar 
sound and similar orthography, the scholar will be led to spell each word 
correctly by the powerful aids of classification, association, and locality. 

To effect this desirable object the words are all classed with reference to 

SIX GENERAL PRINCIPLES. 

I. The words are all classed by similar terminations, both as to similari- 
ty of sound and similarity of orthography. As page 46, labor, arbor, harbor, 
&c. ; page 49, battZe, rattZe, tattZe, &c. ; page 111, mansion, pension, &cc. ; 
page 112, nation, station, &c. 

XL. All the different diphthongs are separately classed. As page 53, deed, 
heed, weed, &c. ; same page, deal, meal, veal,"&c. ; page 54, wield, ye'eld, 
shield, Sec. ; page 57, loop, poor, &c. ; same page, tour, your, &c. 

III. Ail single and double consonants are separately classed. As page 
22, baZZast, paZZid, hatter, &c. ; page 47, bottom, error, terror, &c. ; page 114, 
a^oarition, opposition, &c. 

IV. Different consonants, which might be confounded witJi or mistaken 
for other consonants, owing to their various or similar sounds, are separate- 
ly classed. As pages 61 to 121, c,g, gk, ng, th, x, ch, tch, c, s, and t, like sh, 
/like sk, t like tsh, &c. &c, are ail separately classed. 

V. All silent consonants are separately and alphabetically classed, pages 
121 and 122, end of Part IIL 

VL The Verbal Distinctions are all separately classed, and their pecu- 
liarities pointed out, which in all other Spelling Books are intermingled with 
other words, causing great perplexity and embarrassment, subjecting the 
scholar also to an interminable round of guessing at their orthography— as 
pair, pare., pear ; rain, rein, reign; rite, right, write, wright; abuse, abuse ; 
excuse, excuse ; conduct, conduct' ; ab r sent, absent 7 ; advice, advise ; proph- 
ecy, prophesy, &c. &c, many of which are not any where classed in most 
of the Spelling Books, thus leaving the scholar entirely ignorant of them. 

PRACTICAL ADVANTAGES. 

L Words of similar termination, combination, either single or double con- 
sonants, &c, being classed, the scholar is aided in spelling other words of 
the same class or common basis by their similarity, thus learning the differ- 
ences between the several words, instead of constantly learning an entirely 
new, different, and dissimilar word. As pages 22, oatter, Aatter, Zatter, &c. ; 
33, rwdimental, detrimental, sentimental, &c; 43, ability, stability, debility, 
&c. ', 47, sable, iable, stable, &c. ; 115, deduction, reduction, seduction, pro- 
duction, &c. ; 132, rZiistle, whistle, ftristle, c-ristle, &c. [In other Spelling 
Lessons of other Spelling Books, the diphthong, consonant, single or double, 
combination, or termination changes with nearly every word. If, therefore, 
it be of as great importance to teach correct orthography as correct pronun- 
ciation, then words should be eiassed, as in this Spelling Book, with simi- 
larity of /orthography as well as similarity of sound. 1 

I IL In this Spelling Book, and in this Spelling Book only, all the varieties 
o\ vowel and consonant sounds, and combinations of sounds are so classed 
els to make the scholar practically and familiarly acquainted with them, 
v and.also have them permanently impresed on his mind. 
"^. in. In this Spelling Book the easy words are separated from the difficult 
ones, thus giving the teacher an opportunity to drill or practise the scholar 
a greater length of time on the difficult than easy words, thereby saving 
from a third to a half of the time of the scholar and teacher, usually 
wasted or thrown away by studying, pronouncing, and spelling over and 
over, again and again, words which require no study, spelling, or repetition 



VI PREFACE. 



of the letters to impress their orthography on the mind as, from their anal- 
ogy, they are never spelled wrong. As, punish, demand, dispute, intend, 
stimulate, grand, invoke, &c. &x. ; yet, in other Spelling Books, the easy 
and difficult words are promiscuously thrown together, without proper clas- 
sification, causing all the difficulties in learning to spell. 

IV. By the use of this Spelling Bool* the words of similar orthography 
and sound being classed together, the eye and ear act in concert or unison 
without confusion or doubt, thus enabling the scholar to spell right instead 
of wrong, or continually guessing at the orthography of each word ; as to 
spell wrong makes just as deep an impression upon the mind of the scholar 
as to spell right; hence the great importance of having a correct repetition 
of the letters always, instead of spelling right a part of the time, and wrong 
a part of the time. Not only, therefore, does this classification enable the 
scholar to learn the orthography of a given number of words in a less time 
than without it; but, by lessening the number of incorrect first impressions 
on the mind, tends to fix more permanently correct impressions. No greater 
error can possibly prevail than the common one, viz. : that if a child be puz- 
zled in spelling a word, and spells it ivrong again and again, that this will 
impress the correct orthography on his mind when he finally spells it right. 
But, the words should be so classed that whatever is seen by the eye as 
different in any spelling lesson should also be recognised by the ear, thus 
having the eye and ear act in concert or unison, and thus, also, effecting the 
two great objects to be attained in making good spellers, viz. : distinct im- 
pression in looking at the words or in studying the spelling lesson : and, cor- 
rect repetition in spelling the words of such lesson in spelling classes— 
which are the true and only ways of learning the orthography of any word. 

The Alphabet is analytically arranged in lessons, so that a part of the 
letters may be learned at once, the vowels being placed first. No child or 
adult, however strong his memory may be, is capable of remembering all 
the sounds of the different letters in the Alphabet, until he shall have 
learned one at a time. It will aid the child very much while learning the 
letters, should the teacher or parent frequently, in the course of the day, 
request him to point out or find, in any book, the particular letter or letters 
which he is committing; and also, to require him often to repeat the name 
of the letter when not looking at the character which represents it. 

As the sounds of the different letters are given at the heads of the differ- 
ent lessons, and in the larger Spelling Book, and will be given at conside- 
rable length in the Expositor or School Dictionary, or both, soon to be pub- 
lished, they are not inserted in this Primary Spelling Book. So of the 
Names of Persons and Places, and Scripture Proper Names. 

It is believed that, as the Reading Books of this Series contain so large a 
number of words in the Spelling Lessons, (about eleven th&usand), this Pri- 
mary Spelling Book will be found to contain a sufficiently large amount 
of words, particularly in those schools in which the Reading Books of this 
Series are used ; and, it is presumed, also, that most teachers will think it 
has enough spelling for all cases, as it contains as many words as any of 
the ordinary Spelling Books now in use. 

In consequence of the great popularity and use of the author's Series of 
Reading Books, particularly the Juvenile Readers Nos. I, II, and III, designed 
to accompany the Spelling Book, both from the adaptation of the Lessons to 
the juvenile mind, and from the graduation of the Lessons by the number of 
syllables in each word, from monosyllables to words of two, three, or more 
syllables, it is believed to be perfectly consistent and proper for him to extend 
his classes of words in the several spelling lessons of this work, to the ex- 
clusion of more extensive Reading Lessons usually found in Spelling Books. 

With grateful acknowledgments to those teachers and parents who have 
so generously patronised his former Spelling and Reading Books, by the in- 
troduction and use of several millions of those works, he dedicates this 
work to them, hoping that it will meet as cordial a reception* and be even 
more instrumental in promoting the interests of the rising generation.

RUDIMENTS OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. Vll 

Q. What are the elements and first principles of Language? — A. Letters. 

Q. How many letters are there in the English Language 1 — A. Twenty-six : 
namely,, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i,j, k, I, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z. 

Q. What are they called when taken together ? — A. The English Alphabet. 

Q. How is the Alphabet divided ? — A. Into vowels and consonants. 

Q. W hat is a vowel 1 — A. It is a letter which can be fully sounded by itself. 

Q. Which are the vowels 1 — A. A, e, t, 0, u. Wis a vowel when it is im- 
mediately preceded by a, e, or 0, in the same syllable. Fis always a vowel 
when it is in the middle or at the end of a syllable, and sometimes at the 
beginning of a syllable, as in ber yl,par ox ysm. 

Q. What is a consonant 1—A. It is a letter which can not be fully sound- 
ed without the help of a vowel. 

Q. Which are the consonants'? — A. B, c, d, f, g, h,j, k, I, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, 
v, x, 2. W is always a consonant when it begins a word or syllable, or is 
immediately preceded by d, s, t, or th, as in dwarf, swing, twine, thwack. 
Of the Diphthongs and Triphthongs. 

Q. What is a diphthong 1 — A. It is the union of two vowels in one syl- 
lable, sounded at the same time. 

Q. How many kinds are there? — A. Two ; proper and improper. 

Q. What is a proper diphthong ? — A. It is that in which both vowels are 
sounded, as oi in oil. 

Q. What is an improper diphthong 1—A. It is that in which but one vow- 
el is sounded, as ea in heat. 

Q. What is a triphthong 1 — A. It is the union of three vowels in one syl- 
lable, sounded at the same time, as ieu in lieu. Uoy in buoy, is the only 
proper triphthong. 

As the sounds of the consonants are all very thoroughly noted at the 
heads of the different Spelling Lessons of this work, and will be treated of 
at length in the Expositor or School Dictionary ; and also, as several Charts, 
containing the Elementary Sounds of the Language have been recently pub- 
lished, I have thought proper wholly to omit them in this work. 

The silent Consonants are all alphabetically classed and noted, pages 
121 and 122 of this work.

Fate, far, fall, fat. what— me, met, her, they— pine, pin, stir, shire, firm — 

13567 8 146 7 1 614 

no, nor, not, to, good, dove — tube, tub, rule, bull — dew, crew— fly, system. 
Figure 1 represents the long sound of a, e, t, o, u. w, and y ; 2, the fiat sound 

of a ; 3, the long broad a and ; 4, the short sound of a, e, i, u, and y ; 

5, the short broad a and ; 6, the sound of 00 proper or slender ; 7, the 

sound of short 00 or obtuse u ; 8, short u, made by e, i, and o ; 9, the sound 

of long a, made by e; ]0, the sound of long e, made by i; and 11, the 

sound of short c, made by i. 

Q. How are proper diphthongs defined? — A. By both vowels being printed 
in Roman whenever they occur. 

Q. How are the silent letters distinguished ? — A. By being printed in Italic. 

Q. What sound has szchen printed in Italic? — A. The sound of z. 
Of Letters, Syllables, Words, Sentences, and Accent. 

Q. What do letters form ? — A. Syllables ; syllables form words, and words 
form sentences. 

Q. What is a word of one syllable called 1 — A. A monosyllable ; a word 
of two syllables, a dissyllable; of three syllables, a trisyllable; of four or 
more syllables, & polysyllable. 

Q. What is accent? — A. It is a forcible stress of voice on a letter or syl- 
lable, in order to distinguish it from other letters or syllables in the same 
word- Accent is either Primary or Secondary. Primary accent is that 
which distinguishes one syllable or letter from all others in any particular 
word. Secondary accent is a less forcible stress of voice than the Primary, 
which we often place on another syllable in words of three or more sylla- 
bles, to pronounce it more distinctly and forcibly than unaccented syllables.

A good child minds what those say to him who 
teach him at school. He is kind to all, and tries 
to do right at all times. He comes to school clean 
and neat, and does not play by the way as bad 
boys do. 

God will love and bless all those who try to do 
what is right.

When you look at the sun, at noon, your face is 
to the south. When your face is to the south, 
your back is to the north : your left hand is to the 
east, and your right hand is to the west. The sun 
rises in the east and sets in the west. 

Do you love to see the lambs in the fields ? 
How they love to skip, and run, and jump on the 
hills ! When it is warm you can go to the fields 
and see them nip off the fine green grass. 

Do you love to hear the birds sing in the 
grove ? How gay they are when the sun shines ! 
But when the storm comes, they hide in their 
nests.

Lesson XXIX.— 29. 




A WALK IN THE GARDEN AND THE GROVE. 

What a fine sight it is to see the beautiful flow- 
ers in the garden! Ann, Charles, and James 
went to the garden to gather some pinks, and 
roses, and violets for their mother and older sis- 
ters, with which they will be much pleased. 

What can be more delightful than a fine bunch 
of flowers ! So sweet, so fragrant ! 

After they had given the flowers to their moth- 
er and sisters, and had taken dinner, they took 
a walk in the beautiful grove a short distance 
from the house, where they found the ground all 
covered with green grass ; and, the shade of the 
trees made it very pleasant indeed.

Lesson XXX.— 30. 

When winter comes, the flowers are all dead 
and the leaves fall from the trees. The little 
birds flee away and the cold wind comes from 
the north. 

Then little children need warm clothes, and 
gloves or mittens to keep their fingers warm. 
What would become of them in the winter, if 
nobody took care of them ? 

Many poor children suffer from cold and hun- 
ger in winter. You should always think of this ; 
and, if you have any thing which you can spare, 
you should give it to those who are poor and in 
want of food, or clothing, or wood. 

God loves those who are kind to the poor. 

Lesson XXXI.— 31. 

Do you know what sugar comes from ? Sugar 
comes from a cane, like a walking-stick, that 
grows in the ground. 

They squeeze the juice out, and boil it a long 
time, and that makes sugar. 

Sugar is also made from the juice of other 
plants. It is also made from the sap which they 
draw from a large tree, called the maple-tree. 
This sap is taken from the tree in the spring of 
the year, when the frost is coming out of the 
ground. This sap they boil very much. 

And what is tea ? Tea is a leaf that grows 
on a shrub, and that is dried a great deal be- 
fore it is fit for use.

PART II. 

Various and Peculiar Sounds of the Single Vowels, Diphthongs, 
and Triphthongs. , 

In Part II. all the varieties of the Sounds of Single Vowels, 
Diphthongs, and Triphthongs are given, all separately classed with 
their peculiarities distinctly pointed out ; but, in this Part, as in 
Part L, only the simple consonant sounds are given. In this Part 
also, as in Part L, there are no silent consonants intermingled with 
those which are sounded as they are in other Spelling Books, all 
being classed and noted separately at the end of Part III. Neither 
are there in Part II., any words subject to different accentuation 
or pronunciation when differently applied, nor any words pro- 
nounced alike but of different orthography and signification, as all 
and aid, cell and sell, conduct, conduct', use and use, &c. Those 
words are all classed in Part IV., instead of being intermingled 
with other words, as in other Spelling Books, where these peculi- 
arities and distinctive definitions are not noted, thereby causing 
great perplexity and embarrassment. 

Note. — The silent vowels are noted by being printed in Italic. The letter 
s, when printed in Italic, should be sounded like z. When the vowel e, at 
the end of an unaccented syllable preceded by a consonant, is printed in a 
Roman character, the preceding vowel in that syllable should be pronoun- 
ced long, as in cm-pire ; but if it be printed in Italic, the preceding vowel in 
that syllable should be pronounced short, as in hos-tile. When e ends an 
unaccented syllable, and is immediately preceded by a vowel which is not 
silent, the vowel should be pronounced long, as in av-e-nue ; but if the 
vowel immediately preceding the e be silent, the vowel preceding that 
should be short, as in cat-a-logwe. In the remaining Parts of this book, a 
figure, placed over a vowel, shows the accented syllable without any other 
direction, and determines the sound of the accented vowels which follow 
in that column until another figure occurs.

Lesson LXXXIII.— 83. 




THE HAPPY FAMILY. 

Look at this happy family ! The father and 
mother are seated by the table before the fire, on 
a pleasant winter evening, while their little chil- 
dren are playing happily about the room. They 
have both been reading ; but. now they have stop- 
ped to look at their happy children around them. 

All children should love and obey their pa- 
rents who are so kind and good to them. They 
take care of them when they are young. They 
provide them food, and clothes, and books, and 
nurse them when they are sick. Who would not 
be kind to their father and mother ? 

Good children never tell lies. When they do 
any thing that is wrong they own it, and try not 
to do so any more.

GOING TO CHURCH. 

See, there are people going to church ! What 
a delightful place ! It is almost surrounded by 
trees ! 

The Sabbath is a day of rest. All good chil- 
dren go to church to pray to God, or to hear the 
preacher speak of the truths of the Bible. The 
Bible tells us about God who made this great 
world. He made all the pretty flowers, the 
trees, the grass, and the grain, and the little birds 
which sing so sweetly in the woods. 

We are taught at church about heaven, and 
how to live so as to be happy in this world and 
in the next. 

Who would not love to go to church ?

PART III, 

Various and Peculiar Sounds of the Consonants. 

In Part III. all the peculiar varieties of Consonant Sounds are 
given, all separately classed and their peculiarities distinctly point- 
ed out. In this Part also, as in Parts I. and II., the words in each 
class or Lesson are classed with regard to the terminating syllable 3 
or to the sound of the vowel in the terminating syllable, in every 
possible case. As in Parts I. and II., there are no silent conso- 
nants intermingled with those which are sounded, in Part III., 
as they are in other Spelling Books, causing great doubt and diffi- 
culty in the mind of the scholar ; but, they are all alphabetically 
classed and their silence noted separately, at the end of Part III. 
Neither are there, in Part III., any words subject to different ac- 
centuation or pronunciation when differently applied, nor any 
w T ords pronounced alike but of different orthography and signifi- 
cation. See note and remarks, pages 31.— See also, page 1 — very 

PARTICULARLY. 

Note. — In this Part, as in Part IT., the silent vowels are noted by being 
printed in Italic. The letter s, when thus printed, has the sound of z. 
Diphthongs are separated from the single vowels, being all separately class- 
ed.

Note.— Some teachers are of opinion that 


c and g, in the words a-cid, di- 


git, &c, should end the accented syllable : 


thus, ac-id, dig-it, &c. ; but as 


c and g are hard at the end of syllables, it seems to be very improper to 


deviate from the analogous and established rule of the language by ending 


these syllables with c and g. Certainly, if authors of Spelling Books end 


these syllables with c and g to avoid ending an accented syllable with a 


vowel having a short sound, they, to be consistent, should divide the words 


mu-sic-ian, sus-pic- 


ion, am-bit-ion, with c and t at the end of the accented 


syllables, which they have not done.

THE STEAM-BOAT, RIVER, AND COUNTRY. 

See that beautiful Steam-Boat ! How smooth- 
ly it glides along through the water ! It is very 
delightful to travel in this way, from one city to 
another, in pleasant weather. 

You can see the pretty fields, and houses, and 
trees as you pass along. Sometimes you will see 
people standing on the bank of the river to see the 
Steam-Boat pass. Sometimes you will see peo- 
ple gathering hay and grain in the fields. 

A few years since and there were no Steam- 
Boats on any of the rivers or lakes of our coun- 
try ; but, they can now be seen on almost every 
river in which the water is deep enough for them 
to move along.

THE TRAIN OF RAIL-ROAD CARS. 

Look, see those fine rail-road cars ! What a 
beautiful sight ! 

They move on wheels very quietly and smooth- 
ly, a great deal faster than a coach or a wagon ; 
almost as swift as the swiftest horse can run. 

Sometimes you can see the smoke from the 
pipe of the locomotive or forward car, or hear 
the puffing of the steam, or the rolling of the car 
wheels, at a great distance. 

It is a very pleasant way to travel over the 
country, only that the cars move so fast that you 
can not look at and see every thing distinctly. 

If you ever ride in the cars, you must be very 
careful not to step on or off from them while they 
are moving ; for, in this way, many persons have 
fallen and been badly hurt.

PART IV. 



VERBAL DISTINCTIONS, SOUNDS OF ED, VARIABLE ORTHOGRAPHY, &C. 

Part TV. contains words subject to different accentuation or pronunciation 
when differently applied ; words pronounced alike but of different orthog- 
raphy and signification ; and, words nearly alike in pronunciation, none of 
which have been inserted in Parts I., II., or ILL, and intermingled with 
other words as they are in other Spelling Books, where their distinctive def- 
initions and peculiarities are not given, causing great perplexity and em- 
barrassment both to teacher and scholar. Part IV. also contains Variable 
and Irregular Orthography and Pronunciation, &c. &c. 

Note. — In this Part c is soft like s, before e, i, and y, and hard like k, be- 
fore a, o, u, I, r, and t ; g like j, before e, ?, and y, and hard, before a, o, w, 
I, and r ; gh and^A the sound of/; th is printed in Italic when sharp, and 
in Roman w T hen flat ; sc like s, before e, i, and y. and like sk, before a, o, u, 
I, and r ■; x the sound of ks ; and ch the sound of tsh, unless otherwise noted. 
In this Part, also, n. stands for noun ; v. for verb ; a. for adjective; ad. for 
adverb ; par. for participle ; n. vlu. for plural nouns ; pres. t. for present 
tense; pre. for preterit.

Q. What is the use of the interrogation point 1 — A. To denote that a ques-

a raised tone of voice, if the question can be answered by yes or no, and 
make sense, as, " Is Charles sick?" Yes. u Do you think he will recover?" 
No. But if the question be asked by who, which, what, how, why, when, 
where, wherefore ; or, if the question can not be answered by yes or no, and 
make sense, then the end of the sentence should be read with a depression 
of the voice, as, " Why will ye die?" " How did he run ?"

ginning of another. Then it should be placed at the end of the line con- 
taining the former part of the word. 

Q. What is the use of the parenthesis ? — A. It includes something ex- 
planatory which should be read in a weaker and quicker tone of voice than 
the rest of the sentence, and which, if omitted, would not obscure the sense.
